Risk Assessment<br />
6.46 Risk ID IDPR007, as with IDPR004, relates to the production of an effective and robust<br />
sustainable transport strategy for the <strong>Borough</strong>. Again, it is acknowledged that such a<br />
strategy might not be achieved over the plan period. As a result, congestion on the<br />
non-strategic road network could increase to an unacceptable level. This could have a<br />
knock on effect for congestion on the strategic road network and could reduce the<br />
desirability of the <strong>Borough</strong> for residents and businesses to live in and operate from. It is<br />
likely that this could have implications for economic growth within the <strong>Borough</strong>. The<br />
likelihood of Risk IDPR007 occurring is considered high, given the fact that to date, and<br />
in spite of numerous transport strategies and company travel plans being in place, the<br />
effect of congestion across the <strong>Borough</strong> appears to continue to increase. The severity<br />
of this risk is also considered to be high.<br />
6.47 Risk ID IDPR008 is concerned with the affects of accelerated climate change on the<br />
ability of the network to function to capacity, as a result of adaptation inaction on the<br />
part of the network provider/users. This is a recognised and credible universal risk to<br />
this type of infrastructure and one that the <strong>Council</strong> has limited control over. The<br />
probability of recurring disruption to the network as a result of extreme weather events<br />
is considered medium given the fact that events such as snow or heavy rain generally<br />
presents more on the non-strategic road network than the strategic network. The<br />
severity is considered to be high.<br />
6.48 The impact that <strong>Runnymede</strong>'s Local <strong>Plan</strong> will have on the non-SRN is being assessed<br />
in the SCC TIA 2012 (yet to be issued). It is likely that the TIA will confirm that any<br />
increase in traffic as a result of implementation of the Local <strong>Plan</strong> will not significantly<br />
affect the non-SRN. The Surrey County <strong>Council</strong> Technical Note entitled ‘transport<br />
measures to support growth identified in the <strong>Runnymede</strong> <strong>Borough</strong> Core Strategy’ (June<br />
2012), provides details of how the County <strong>Council</strong> seek to target congestion and road<br />
safety over the plan period.<br />
6.49 Cumulatively, it is likely that specific elevations in traffic from developments such as<br />
DERA (LP01, LP02, and LP08), would in combination with similar developments in<br />
